Pasó con la llegada del sonido, el color y los efectos especiales por computadora (CGI). Hoy estamos viviendo ese mismo salto histórico gracias a la inteligencia artificial.
Lo divertido es que, en lugar de un drama profundo, lo primero que alguien decidió crear con este inmenso poder fue a Stephen Hawking en una silla de ruedas con láseres peleando contra Neil deGrasse Tyson por el control del multiverso.
